Late, late at night |
|
24-hour store |
|
Ghosts fly up the aisles, across the shining floor |
|
Opening and closing automatic doors |
|
Hands waving mirrors |
|
Angels fly through lights |
|
But the sleepless and lost push their squeaking carts |
|
Down the rows of clothes and see nothing at all |
|
No, no one hears the singing bones |
|
And no one sees the crying ghosts |
|
And everyone thinks I'm alone |
|
All alone |
|
But under concrete |
|
And steel linoleum floors |
|
There is a fire that will never die |
|
A golden wheel inside the world |
|
A golden wheel in plastic and bows |
|
In particles of light that fall from the sun |
|
A river of candles |
|
Tumbling in the dark |
|
No, no one hears the singing bones |
|
And no one sees the crying ghosts |
|
And everyone thinks I'm alone |
|
All alone |
|
No, no one hears the singing bones |
|
And no one sees the crying ghosts |
|
And everyone thinks I'm alone |
|
All alone |
